ERIC: So it gets a lot of water during a heavy rain and – so, trying to think of a good solution to keep the water away from my foundation; whether to bury the pipe or if there’s another, you know, idea that I hadn’t thought of to keep that water away from the house.

TOM: (overlapping voices) OK. Well, I mean, your two options are either to extend that out with a piece of downspout material but you’re still going to have the water reasonably close. The best option is if you can run it underground through a PVC pipe; a solid PVC pipe.

LESLIE: Not the perforated ones.

TOM: Yeah. Is there an opportunity to discharge that somewhere on the property?

ERIC: Yeah. Well, I’m kind of at an angle, so it always rushes down the back of my house.

TOM: OK.

ERIC: So, yeah, something to that effect I could probably do.

TOM: Yeah, well, what you want to do is – there’s a PVC fitting that’s a square – that’s designed to fit a square leader pipe on one side and then a round four-inch PVC pipe on the other. So it actually transitions between the gutter, leader, the gutter spout and the PVC pipe.
